Poinsettia


It’s amazing how fast the color changes in this Poinsettia flower that I have. I was surprised myself. But I’m glad I was a part of this amazing transformation. I just posted this 3 days ago and the color is different now, the bright red color is very apparent.
Poinsettia comes in different colors too like white and salmon but I think red is the most popular because it is the color most associated with Christmas.
